Amour Abdenour, born February 17, 1952 in Leflaye, near Bejaia (Algeria), is a kabyle singer, songwriter and composer.

Life and career

Towards the end of the 50s, the young boy Abdenour is interested in music; he listens to songs on the radio and learns to play the flute, goblet drum (darbouka) and finally guitar at age 11. In 1964, while living with his grandparents, he joins "JFLN" a local cultural association, giving him the opportunity to enrich his talent by attending and participating in local events. In 1968, Abdenour has moved to Algiers. A year later he writes and composes his first song, named "Yeǧǧa-tt" (Left alone), which airs on the radio for the first time in 1970. Busy with his studies and military duty, Amour Abdenour waited until the end of the 70s to release his first records, starting a long, ongoing career.[1]
